        Probably more likely the knock-on effects of the Euro going belly-up.

          Unlikely to go belly-up when business is good though

          Business confidence high in Germany

          ..as opposed to all the worry about whether the UK will cease to exist within two years.

            Why should things look bad for Germany? It has an artificially low exchange rate - due to the other Euro countries being stuffed.

            So life in Germany is superb - the rest of the Euro lives in squalor and misery.

            One day this will be seen as a war crime.

                      Of course it requires minimal effort.
